Other Ideas for Leftover Chicken

Chicken Burritos

leftover cooked chicken, skin removed

green salsa

taco seasoning

refried beans

chopped tomatoes

grated cheese

sour cream

flour tortillas

Take leftover chicken and heat it with half a jar or more of green salsa and a bit of taco seasoning. I had bought a mix in a jar from Costco and it is nice for quick stuff like this, although I prefer to just mix up my own and probably won’t buy it again. If you don’t have a mix, sprinkle on a bit of chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder. Add some water if you’re salsa is more chunky than liquid so you can simmer the chicken. Pull it apart with two forks once it’s warmed and let it simmer in the sauce while you grate some cheese, heat up some beans and tortillas, and get the table set.
